I bought a cheap but good deal electric guitar, Lyon by Washburn. Black, nicely finished and very neat. There’s no pickguard and the dots on the fretboard is on the top and kind of invisible because it’s so small. The guitar itself looks like Washburn OX11 …

I just love the nostalgic sound that the song Home makes, and the sweet croon that blends with it. It is, to say the least, an amazing composition, an original that beats with the times. Home is like a good book, the first time I read it, …

Essplode is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their second album, Danse Manatee. Opening up with a more traditional sound, I’m somewhat reassured by this and hope that the band doesn’t push the song to a dissonant extreme as they’ve done already with two tracks on the …

This guy is awesome. If you don’t remember, he’s the guy from Hootie and the Blowfish. He came out with a country album and it’s amazing, simply amazing. His voice is so on the money; it’s unique and beautiful and rich. I really and truly do not like country …

There is no doubt that Nidji is one of the most Famous bands in Indonesia and I believe, regarding that, Mira Lesmana (Producer of Laskar Pelangi) chose them to contribute one song for Laskar Pelangi (Rainbow Army), a movie based on best-seller book by Andrea Hirata about teachers who …

Ten Years After, I’m Coming Home, released in 1996, compilation.
A band that defintelt stands the test of time is Ten Years After. Alvin Lee and company could really belt out the jams. It’s sad that a lot of teenagers into heavier music today don’t realize how important the …

The Osmonds: The Plan CD is a very special compilation. Actually, compilation isn’t the right word. This project was a labor of both love and inspiration, written by the Osmonds and which musically told their religious beliefs. It’s tender and rock both and takes listeners on …

Every musician needs the proper equipment. If you happen to be a guitarist, I am sure that you have searched the internet and different stores coming across thousands of different guitars. Every musician has his or her personal preference of guitar brand, but it does’nt hurt to have another …

I was really impressed with this two-man band - or should I say, the one man, one woman band. HoneyHoney is comprised of two members and two members only (with the exception of an additional musician or so on stage i.e. a drummer). For some reason, usually …

The first time I heard the song “City on Our Knees” by Toby Mac it was on the ending scenes from the movie “Grace Card”. Not only does the song bring to light some deep emotions that everyone feels when listening to a song that is meaningful to them, …

Vampire Weekend, a new, up-and-coming Indie-Rock band has swept the nation with its “soft-rock.” Its latest album titled Mansard Roof is, in my opinion, excellent.

This is the second album of Fall Out Boy that I’ve heard. It’s really good, but for some reason I love the first one (From Under the Cork tree) better. I was watching (guess what…) MTV (again! Is anyone seeing a pattern here?) and I saw the music video …

I was amazed when I first heard Leona Lewis sing on The X Factor. With a voice that recalls early Mariah Carey, any time Celine Dion and a tone so pure you almost wonder if your dream she blew me away. While her first album was overall …

So we’ve all seen plenty of music videos that switch between shots of the band rocking in the background and a dramatic scene played by a couple of actors. But never before have I seen something so entirely original that I just sit back and think, “What a great …

I never thought that In Flames would ever change up some of their style(i.e the cheesy guitar riffs and the drums), and they did just that. Also, with the added keyboardist, added some atmosphere to their music, which is nice.
THEY ADDED A GROOVE! I have always wanted In Flames …

During the fall of 1994, I remember hearing Juicy by the Notorious B.I.G. on the radio and I found the song to be very catch especially the hook that was being sung by up and coming R&B trio Total. As a result, I was very intrigued and decided to …

Of all the music albums completed by worldwide singing sensation Avril Lavigne, the Let Go album should be easily her best in my opinion. But this is not to say the lightning never strikes twice!
